Comment:

 I've worked around it to a large extent by partially ignoring the locking
 on the bitmap.  Rather than waiting for VNC to finish using the bitmap for
 an update while DirectConnected() is trying to report changes, I just let
 DirectConnected() do the changes to the bitmap pointer, resolution, etc.
 The update in progress usually keeps on working, though the end user may
 see some garbage on their screen due to the change in video memory usage.
